What is the cost of coaching and consulting?

It is USD $150 per session with a minimum of 6 bi-weekly sessions recommended. Depending on scheduling, we can increase or decrease the engagement.

What is the difference between mentoring, coaching and consulting?

Coaching is similar to what athletic coaches do. Being outside you, a coach can see what you cannot see from the inside. There are many blind spots. Also, there are often internal obstacles that a coach can help you identify and shift. Every profession can use a coach, including teachers.

The words Consulting and Mentoring are similar. Mentoring generally means that someone has achieved what you want to achieve. By following the advice of a mentor, you can greatly accelerate your progress. Sometimes a consultant will do some extra research on your behalf. Consulting gets into actually making specific recommendations the way a management consultant will do with a business.

Who Is My Coach, Consultant and Mentor?

My name is Andrew Ingkavet and I have a lot to offer you. Here is a few reasons you may want to work with me.

What Can I Expect?

It’s all dependent on you. For some, the sessions have created massive change and transformation. For others, a minor shift. It all depends on how much you are willing to change and take action.

What Others Have Said

Wanted to pass along an insight I had about the consulting you’ve helped me with (so that maybe you can persuade other teachers to hire you): -The ACT of me agreeing to contractually pay you for the service immediately, concretely changed my mindset from an amateur teacher to a Professional Offering a Service. It helped me look at the business more objectively, but more importantly, it made me 100% more likely to get real, concrete things done. This wasn’t a a mindset shift that happened on it’s own – I HAD to pay you for this to happen. -by paying you, it confirms that I’m serious about giving the best service that I can to my students/clients, and those students/clients can sense that, respect that, and frankly, they’d rather pay for that than just “finding lessons from anybody.” It’s a huge leverage point – I’ve gotten feedback from parents, old and new families, that have said things like “you’re not just a music teacher, you’ve got a whole other thing you bring to the lessons.” That’s powerful. – Brett
